Pros

Very kind team members. Most people try their best.

Cons

Odessa is a sinking ship, captained by a leadership team that is as self-serving as they come. The Bangalore office is treated terribly with employees exploited, underpaid, and expected to endure mindless work on a product that's nothing more than a liability of patchwork solutions. The company is slowly morphing into a reflection of its new CEO's worst traits—greedy, visionless, and utterly out of touch. Innovation is dead here; it's all about survival in a toxic environment where sycophants thrive and genuine talent is suffocated. If you enjoy being trapped in a dead-end job with no learning opportunities, Odessa is the perfect place. For everyone else, avoid this company like the plague.

The flip side of being a global company is that meetings are sometimes during "nonstandard" hours.
